MIT engineers have built an AI tool that forecasts extreme weather without training on historical disaster data.
Kai Chang, a mechanical engineering graduate student, and Professor Themis Sapsis developed the tool. It produces maps of events that have not appeared in a region’s historical record but remain statistically-possible. Each map also carries estimates of the event’s likely duration and intensity, alongside a separate estimate of the area it might affect.
